With increasing pollution of water sources and industrial wastewater, traditional treatment methods are no longer adequate for removing persistent pollutants.\nPersistent organic compounds, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and aromatic compounds are among the pollutants that are difficult to remove by conventional processes. In such circumstances, advanced oxidation systems (AOPs) using ozone (O\u2083) as one of the strongest oxidizers are considered an efficient and sustainable solution for advanced treatment.<\/p>


Principles of operation of advanced oxidation systems with ozone<\/h3>

In the advanced oxidation process, the goal is to produce highly reactive radical species such as the hydroxyl radical (\u2022OH). These radicals have very high oxidizing power and are capable of completely breaking down the chemical structure of pollutants and converting them into simpler compounds such as CO\u2082 and H\u2082O.<\/p>

The main reactions in ozone systems include the following:<\/p>
